"Oi, where are you going?" Kurogane said as Fay opened the front door, all ready to go outside. In Fay's hand was a small candle, which he slid swiftly into his pocket.
"Outside! I'm going to make a snow lantern," Fay answered with a wide smile on his face. Kurogane stood up from the sofa, grabbed his coat, mittens and scarf and followed the blonde to the yard. Though they had made up, Kurogane was still a bit sour and this time, he wouldn't let anyone even touch Fay. So, he absolutely had to go outside; to act as the mage's bodyguard.
It was late and fairly dark out, a perfect time for making snow lanterns.
Fay crouched on the ground and cupped some snow in his hands, forming a little snowball. He repeated this for a minute or two, until he had made a total of twenty snowballs. Kurogane stood beside him, observing Fay's hands. How swiftly that gentle pair of hands could make those white, almost perfectly round balls. Kurogane tried to hide his small smirk, when he started to think how handy Fay was... not only in making snowballs.
"It's almost ready, Kuro-pippi!" Fay laughed as he placed the snowballs on top of each other, making a little snowball pyramid, which top was still open. He lit the candle and placed it in the snow lantern before finally putting one last snowball to cover the top. The candlelight shone beautifully through between the snowballs.
"There," Fay smiled, "Let's make snow angels now!"
"No. Do them yourself," Kurogane grunted. He was kind enough to accompany the mage by coming outside, but snow angels... A strict no for snow angels, real men don't make snow angels. Only kids, women and the mage make them.
"Aww, but Kuro-tan... Please."
"No," Kurogane declined yet again. The disappointed blonde still laid down on the ground, starting to flail his arms and legs in the snow. The ninja looked at him like he always did, with the usual 'what-the-hell-are-you-doing-and-acting-like-a-kid"-look. Fay was flailing with a big, goofy grin.
"Kuro-run, is it done yet?" he asked, getting up just a little.
"How the hell I know?!" the darker man growled. He was so not interested in some damn, silly snow angel. Too bad for Kurogane, he was apparently not concentrating on Fay that much, because the mage managed to grab his hand and pull him down in the snow. Kurogane fell on his back and Fay climbed quickly on top of him, keeping the ninja from escaping.
"Now flail your arms and legs!" Fay ordered.
"The fuck I will!"
Fay looked at him with a pout, which slowly turned into a sly grin. He threw his mittens off and slid his fingers under Kurogane's coat and shirt, starting to tickle him by the stomach. Kurogane was crawling under him and tried to push the blonde away.
"Stop that!" Kurogane winced. He was this close of starting to laugh, the mage sure know where to tickle.
"Yay! You're making a snow angel, Kuro-rin!" Fay gave a small laugh.
When Kurogane finally had flinged his limbs around enough to make a thing that looked even distantly like a snow angel, both of them we're slightly exhausted, because of the flailing and such.
Fay panted silently and Kurogane's cheeks had turned red, not only because of flinging, but because on top of him was a panting, a little blushing mage, who was straddling him at the moment.
While they stared into each eyes, it started to snow. The little snowflakes looked like small, fluffy feathers as they fell slowly down.
"Look, it's snowing, Kuro-sama."
Fay leaned down, so that his and Kurogane's noses touched gently. His blonde hair fell on the ninja's face and Kurogane lifted his hand to pet the back of Fay's head. Snowflakes were falling on them, in Fay's light locks and in Kurogane's spiky hair.
They pressed their lips together tenderly. Fay tried to prolong the kiss as long as he could, until they had to gasp for air.
Fay stroked Kurogane's cheek, then gave it a small pinch.
"Let's go inside before one of us gets sick again, Kuro-chan."
A/N: Thanks for reading the seventeenth chapter of the Tsubasa Advent Calendar! Today's theme was 'Snow'!
Enonyymi: By me! This was supposed to be one depressing chapter, but I forgot it... So, the chapter became all fluffy and cute. Heeh.
Punainenpuolukka: Well I would've wanted it to be depressing, but then again, I don't really like angst.
Enonyymi: Because it's depressing (can you see the dilemma?). Hahaha. Anyway, even though today's theme was snow, we don't have any snow here at all. Sniff. It all has melted away.
Punainenpuolukka: Not true, we actually do have snow. Just a little bit, you blindy.
Enonyymi: ... Oops. Well, at least in my yard there's only some god-damn ice!
Punainenpuolukka: But ice is fun! People slip on it and you can laugh at them! Muahaha!
Enonyymi: (she's one malicious person) By the way, does anyone read our Authors' Notes? (Punainenpuolukka said that she wouldn't read them. Blah.) We'd really like to know if you read these. Please comment if you do. Thanks.
Thanks for reading and see ya tomorrow!
